Verdict

COLBYOR beat Holy Angel with Dickie Le Davoir well behind when successful over course and distance last time. He can effectively race off a lower mark with an apprentice's claim taken into account and Richard Fahey's charge can go in again. Only a neck separated Hot Sugar and Speightowns Kid over 5f here last month and the latter is preferred over today's longer trip while Strong Man also has decent claims given apprentice Matthew Hopkins partnered three winners at this track last year.
